Prof.Crum is nice. Good lab condition, and nice students. Content is not complicated to explain.

Some lab sections are held in 7:30am. Snow in winter is headache for driving.

Pros

Great place to work in. The engineering school has a great brand and I'm looking forward to a research position.

Cons

Some might not like Lafayette/West Lafayette but I think it's a wonderful place. Also, the salaries might be lower than other universities but the cost of living is pretty good. Also, there's a notion that as you drift from the Midwest the brand name recognition decreases ; understandably so, since people will always feel better about the top universities closer to home (e.g. Berkeley would probably trump Harvard in CA).
